GPI-anchor transamidase activity (GO:0003923) issues about go-ontology

[deustp01]

In reality this enzyme appears to have 2 activities, i) cleaving the signal peptide, and ii) transferring the GPI anchor onto the protein

I din't know any actual data here, but there is the textbook possibility that this is a transpeptidation in which the cleavage and transfer are accomplished in a single reaction.

That appears the case
see figure 3

In this situation I guess we add the missing parent
GO:0008483 transaminase activity to the MF GO:0003923 GPI-anchor transamidase activity

and keep the cysteine-type endopeptidase.

[ValWood]

whoops that is GO:0008483 transaminase activity we don't have " transamidase activity"

facilitates the transfer of an amide group (-CONH2) from one molecule to another.
General reaction:

R-CONH-R’ + R”-NH2 → R-CO-NH-R” + R’-NH2 R-CONH-R’+R”-NH2→R-CO-NH-R”+R’-NH2

[ValWood]

@pgaudet we do not have " transamidase activity" so I will add the parent
GO:0016769 transferase activity, transferring nitrogenous groups

I

[ValWood]

another bit of weirdness.

This has an additional redundant parent in Protege?
"catalytic activity acting on a protein"

:

Why is that?

[pgaudet]

another bit of weirdness.
This has an additional redundant parent in Protege?
"catalytic activity acting on a protein"

What's wrong with this?

[ValWood]

I wasn't sure why it has the instantiated subclass of a parent term?
"catalytic activity, acting on a protein"
But it doesn't show in QuickGO as a relationship
